Crypto 101: Welcome to FUD Fridays Again! | 10-20-2017 Edition. | New Crypto Fam: Markets Usually Dip on Fridays, Do not Panic Sell. Weekly Reminder / Advice.

in cryptocurrency •  7 years ago 

When the market dips overall -- always remember BITCOIN often controls 50% or more of the market -- as the coin with generally the most volume - most worth overall -- and that first mover advantage being first in the space in 2009.

There is a lot of red in the rest of the market and when a HUGE value coin like BTC is up over 4.5% for a day -- it will control a lot of the market GAINS.

But it is important to remain consistent and balanced in things, like I always try to do --- that is why I will continue to share this message overall -- with all the new people coming to crypto/Steemit daily!

Total Crypto Market Cap climbed this week - the last few days --- back to nearing the ATH of $180B to hitting $174B last nite and today!


Do your best to remain calm, look at trends and charts for a week, a month and so on.

Remain in the game. Do not panic sell or buy ever.

Dips are corrections -- not crashes.

Only Invest What You Can Afford to Lose and Invest in Projects/People/Crypto You Believe In.

Not Investment Advice / Do Your Own Research Always.


FUD: Fear/Uncertainty/Doubt

FOMO: Fear Of Missing Out


Well, what else can you say really.

It's not for the faint of heart and if you are new, I hope red is your favorite colour........ it happens regularly in the volatile Crypto markets

I wish you the best daily-- and that you have a nice weekend.


Thanks for reading, have a nice day.

Looking for Steem to hold at $1 USD (assuming these damned site issues don't scare away anybody... -_-) for the next month or so. After segwit fork in November, with BTC mania subsiding for a bit... perhaps we see steem poke its head back up?

Patience patience patience until SMTs actually launch... then we could actually moon. $2, $4, ....$10 steems?! Who knows what is possible. Just gotta hang in there :-D

bad luck on that payout right now barry, you got the number of the beast goin on:

Screen Shot 2017-10-20 at 1.37.43 PM.png

Yes, there are issues for sure. I am not sure anymore what is going to work or pan out and what is not. I do not like that number either as you would know LOL

Check the last week plus of my posts for who has been flagging them down, but I am kinda losing interest with all the drama and issues around here.

Hi Barry! What's your take on decent and ripple??

I put off buying XRP on principle because it is a Fed Coin tied to the banks and things I do not believe in. I did finally buy some last year on a dip many many months ago, because I wanted to hedge some of my portfolio.

I rarely budge on matters of principle but I also needed an opposing side hedge from an investment POV.

I just hodl for now.

No opinion on the other.

I get asked for investment advice all the time and generally ignore the questions or give a general answer like - buy what you believe in and do your research but it is you. So you get more.

Check the last week plus of my posts for who has been flagging them down, but I am kinda losing interest with all the drama and issues around here.

That's a 5 flagging you, what's their issues?Too many to flag a post. AM sorry Barry.

I replied twice and both were just loading!! I saw 5 who flagged u why??

About a dozen of my posts were flagged - he went back a week and even a couple past payout to damage my rep. If you see the names on the accounts, some were flagged by a lot more than 5 of his accounts --- try 55 bots that nextgen / berniesanders owns. He really does not have good reasons, he always just says my content is crap, calls me names, says I have no community engagement and the latest is--- does not like my formatting/layout of my posts.

Like I said, I am close to being done here -- too many issues and I tried hard for my 14 mths here to be nice, help people, build community, teach others, donate to them etc.

I did my best. I think he sees how hard I have worked, how much content I have posted and now I am in the top of nearly every category and says I am overpaid.

I lost a lot of support with whale collusion over a couple things, and labelled by some of them, and my $15 posts are apparently over rewarded.

But it is OK to follow your comments all day long being mean to people and contributing nothing else --- and every comment your 55 bots vote you up $2.50.

And so I am abusing a vote trail LOL and he creates no content, and hates my content.

If it was fair or balanced, that is one thing but too many hypocrisies here.

Steemit did nothing all the months he has harassed and taken money and rep. score from people with flags, so they are OK with it.

Am so sorry you're being let down..i wonder why it's being allowed. Will probably do the same if i were you..i don't blame you if you do leave it's a shame..good people are hard to find. You're not going to Lisbon anymore?

If you would like to stay in touch via twitter or FB -- look me up and if I will not know who you are, please say so in an early msg. I think one of your Twitter accts may be connected with me. I cannot remember now.

My love for this place was so strong, and has dwindled, watching the problems, collusion, excuses, harassment of people, while they literally do the same things they accuse others of, kinda like I said.

I just see all the work I have put in, like many others -- the place having / tolerating all these injustices, and my love has grown cold here, I am not convinced it will actually go anywhere really.

Why is the currency still at the $1. or 1.20 mark for basically the whole last 12 mths, while users (bots) and accounts are now around the 400,000 mark?

The market seems to be speaking and seeing the same things.

I don't like bullies and collusion and corruption IRL and my pics and posts show me actually on the front lines confronting politicians, police harassment, why should I tolerate it here?

Why does anyone??

That's about all I can say --- I went on #SteemitStrike last winter with all the nonsense, I have done all I can do.

Keep in touch. There are a handful of people here I like and believe in, and that is about it.

Will find you in facebook, yes we're on twitter.
I will keep an eye and watch it here..not knowing on what happened to you, except those recent phishing situations, it's all stars and rainbows. Though u're the 2nd one that want to leave..her case is bullying.

This is the great time to buy altcoin and sell bitcoin! I'm more than sure you'll earn more by buying altcoin than waiting for bitcoin gold!

Indeed you cannot regulate liberty. Great post!

I have been dollar-cost-average buying via Coinbase for a few years now using the ‘recurring buy’ option, and last year that $25 per week (or $1300/year)—which is basically “coffee money”—is today valued at almost $8000. My point in saying this is that there isn’t any reason one couldn’t spend a little of their high-flying bitcoins on a weekly basis to buy altcoins that they feel really confident about. Personally, I don’t think any of them hold a candle to Bitcoin long-term but I hodl some ‘just in case’.

Man, that is an epic blue collar reply everyone needs to read.

It should be a post actually man.

Nice to hear from you, and great work.

Can I come to your island????

LOL

Thanks ... I guess it should be a post. I tend to prefer springboarding off some something though. I typically don’t even get upvotes for my replies. Steemit IMO under-rewards that important bit of social give & take.
